I had choppy sound in most games I tried. Performance is a bit better but battery life is worse than the SD. Overall not worth the “upgrade” from SD and I’ll be returning

Too many bugs, not acceptable

So many bugs. I just can't imagine how is it possible a product launched 6 months ago have these many bugs.
There is a groundbreaking bug, where if you open the side panel (right side one). The whole UI freezes and u can't do anything. Force shutdown is the only option

Careful with Returning Items by mail

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I purchased this item but it was defective. I opted to use the mail in return service offered by Best Buy. I dropped my item off and a week later Best Buy sends me back the empty box and tells me they can’t refund the item. Best Buy will do nothing to help unfortunately and I have chosen to take my business elsewhere.
